I have a Philips Smart TV with a Macbook Pro that has the Serviio program on it. (both up to date)

Normal mkv files are playing perfectly, but when I add subtitles (.srt) I run in to some problems.

At first the files wouldn't play at all, or if they played, the video froze every few seconds.To fix this issue, I saved all the subtitle files as utf-8, which worked.

But now I have the issue that I can't pauze the video when there are subtitles there. The TV notices that I press pause (the video timeline shows up) but it keeps playing. It pauzes perfectly when there are no subtitles involved.
